.Many things make me feel dead inside every day.Ā
- I wasted 7 years on what was a great relationship with a wonderful person, who since we broke it off has done nothing but bash me, call ME abusive, accuse ME of cheating on him, and leave ME with such a great financial burden that I am considering bankruptcy to get a fresh start. (Also before he moved out he told meĀ āI bet youāll be pregnant before the lease is upā Which leads to the next bullet point)
- I got pregnant early last year, experienced organ failure that resulted in surgery, all the stress on my body at such an early stage of pregnancy caused me to lose my child. March 8th is now the hardest day of my life, I love Daylin with all my heart and soul. Losing a child isnāt a feeling Iād wish upon my worst enemy.
- The father of said child accused me of cheating on him.... after I broke up with him? Not sure how that works, but ok?Ā
Now, this post isnāt intended to be a pitty party for me. Losing my child alone was enough to drive me to considering suicide.Ā But I did NOTĀ do that.Ā I stuck through it, even though every day I think about her, I know that she wants me on this earth and she wants me to live on.
I spent a good 4-5 months barely talking to any humans.Ā
Since then, I have had SO many great things happen - despite loss.
- I met an amazing guy, who loves me for me, who cares about me and makes sure I actually take care of myself when Iām down. It may seem rushed, but we got engaged very quickly, but I have no regrets on that. He keeps me going every day.
- I realized itās OK to be sad and grieve over the loss of Daylin, sheās my angel and I love her. But the world is going to keep moving, and Iām going to be a part of it.
- I have a great extended family, although I havenāt mentioned Daylin to them, theyāre very supportive of myself and my fiance.
- I spend more time smiling than ever before. Iām rediscovering myself. And itās WONDERFUL.
- My fiance and I decided that since heās in his 30s and Iām in my late 20s we are going toĀ ālet nature do its thingā and not use birth control of any kind - if we get pregnant, we get pregnant. We are ready for kids, we have means to support kids - so if kids happen they happen.
- Oh, and I also realized: To my ex of 7 years: thank you, fuck you, and Iām glad youāre out of my life.Ā Iām better off now than I ever was before. Every day isnāt full of anxiety. Itās WONDERFUL and Iām SO HAPPY now.
